AJ, With GAE, many fundamental assumptions should be questioned. For example, why do you need a counter? Most developers use a counter for the key, jusst because they always have. With GAE you need to often challange the fundamental requirements and rethink the approach. Overall all I think it is good for many developers since thy get in a rut and aply the same solution to all problems (over using a design pattern cause it always worked before....)
